Continuum damage mechanics based model for quasi brittle materials subjected to cyclic loadings: Formulation, numerical implementation and applications

TL;DR: In this article, a constitutive model for quasi-brittle materials subjected to cyclic loadings is presented, and the main features are the asymmetry between tension and compression, permanent strains and unilateral effect, ensuring not only the relevancy but also the reliability of numerical predictions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A response surface method based on support vector machines trained with an adaptive experimental design

TL;DR: An original approach to approximate implicit limit state functions is proposed based on the support vector machine used in regression trained with an adaptive experimental design to assess the efficiency of the proposed method.
Journal ArticleDOI

A three-dimensional steel/concrete interface model including corrosion effects

TL;DR: In this paper, a constitutive law for modeling the steel/concrete interface by including main corrosion effects is presented, and a three-dimensional formulation has been proposed based on continuum damage mechanics.
Journal ArticleDOI

New prospects in the roles of the C-terminal domains of VEGF-A and their cooperation for ligand binding, cellular signaling and vessels formation.

TL;DR: The number, size and localization of newly formed blood vessels in a model of tumour angiogenesis strongly depend also on the C-terminal domain composition, suggesting that association of several VEGF isoforms may be more efficient for treating ischemic diseases than the use of any single variant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current knowledge on plant/canopy architectural traits that reduce the expression and development of epidemics

TL;DR: The aim of this paper is to explain how architectural traits of plants and canopies induce a more or less severe epidemic and how they may be modified in order to reduce disease development.
